Cardiff (Welsh, Caerdydd) is the capital of Wales and is located in the south of the country. Though it had a reputation of being a rough, industrial city, Cardiff has changed dramatically in recent years. It is now a lively and modern capital city, gaining popularity with tourists interested in its history and culture. Once overlooked as it is now one of the United Kingdom's tourism hotspots, Cardiff has a little bit of everything. Summer is by far the best time to visit, as many of the attractions are outdoors.
